Background. Hospital readmission prediction in pediatric hospitals has received little attention. Studies have focused on the readmission frequency analysis stratified by disease and demographic/geographic characteristics but there are no predictive modeling approaches, which may be useful to identify preventable readmissions that constitute a major portion of the cost attributed to readmissions.Objective. To assess the all-cause readmission predictive performance achieved by machine learning techniques in the emergency department of a pediatric hospital in Santiago, Chile.Materials. An all-cause admissions dataset has been collected along six consecutive years in a pediatric hospital in Santiago, Chile. The variables collected are the same used for the determination of the child’s treatment administrative cost.Methods. Retrospective predictive analysis of 30-day readmission was formulated as a binary classification problem. We report classification results achieved with various model building approaches after data curation and preprocessing for correction of class imbalance. We compute repeated cross-validation (RCV) with decreasing number of folders to assess performance and sensitivity to effect of imbalance in the test set and training set size.Results. Increase in recall due to SMOTE class imbalance correction is large and statistically significant. The Naive Bayes (NB) approach achieves the best AUC (0.65); however the shallow multilayer perceptron has the best PPV and f-score (5.6 and 10.2, resp.). The NB and support vector machines (SVM) give comparable results if we consider AUC, PPV, and f-score ranking for all RCV experiments. High recall of deep multilayer perceptron is due to high false positive ratio. There is no detectable effect of the number of folds in the RCV on the predictive performance of the algorithms.Conclusions. We recommend the use of Naive Bayes (NB) with Gaussian distribution model as the most robust modeling approach for pediatric readmission prediction, achieving the best results across all training dataset sizes. The results show that the approach could be applied to detect preventable readmissions.

In this paper, fingerprint referencing methods based on wireless fidelity Wi-Fi received signal strength (RSS) have used for indoor positioning. More precisely, Naïve Bayes, decision tree (DT), and support vector machine (SVM) one-to-one multi-classes and error-correcting-output-codes classifier are to enable accurate indoor positioning. Then, normalization is used to reduce positioning error by reducing the fluctuation and diverse distribution of the RSS values. Different devices are used in this experiment; the training dataset is not included in the main dataset. Nonetheless, the learned model by the SVM algorithm cannot be affected by the elimination of train datasets of the test device. The efficiency of DT is lower than the other machine learning algorithms, because it performs by Boolean function, and it provides the low accuracy of prediction for dataset than the algorithms. Naïve Bayes technique based on Bayes Theorem is better than DT and close to SVM for positioning approves that 1–1.5 m positioning accuracy for indoor environments can be achieved by the proposed approach which is an excellent result than traditional protocol.

Learning Techniques

Sentiment analysis has gained a lot of attention from researchers in the last year because it has been widely applied to a variety of application domains such as business, government, education, sports, tourism, biomedicine, and telecommunication services. Sentiment analysis is an automated computational method for studying or evaluating sentiments, feelings, and emotions expressed as comments, feedbacks, or critiques. The sentiment analysis process can be automated using machine learning techniques, which analyses text patterns faster. The supervised machine learning technique is the most used mechanism for sentiment analysis. The proposed work discusses the flow of sentiment analysis process and investigates the common supervised machine learning techniques such as multinomial naive bayes, Bernoulli naive bayes, logistic regression, support vector machine, random forest, K-nearest neighbor, decision tree, and deep learning techniques such as Long Short-Term Memory and Convolution Neural Network. The work examines such learning methods using standard data set and the experimental results of sentiment analysis demonstrate the performance of various classifiers taken in terms of the precision, recall, F1-score, RoC-Curve, accuracy, running time and k fold cross validation and helps in appreciating the novelty of the several deep learning techniques and also giving the user an overview of choosing the right technique for their application.

Music in an essential part of life and the emotion carried by it is key to its perception and usage. Music Emotion Recognition (MER) is the task of identifying the emotion in musical tracks and classifying them accordingly. The objective of this research paper is to check the effectiveness of popular machine learning classifiers like XGboost, Random Forest, Decision Trees, Support Vector Machine (SVM), K-Nearest-Neighbour (KNN) and Gaussian Naive Bayes on the task of MER. Using the MIREX-like dataset [17] to test these classifiers, the effects of oversampling algorithms like Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE) [22] and Random Oversampling (ROS) were also verified. In all, the Gaussian Naive Bayes classifier gave the maximum accuracy of 40.33%. The other classifiers gave accuracies in between 20.44% and 38.67%. Thus, a limit on the classification accuracy has been reached using these classifiers and also using traditional musical or statistical metrics derived from the music as input features. In view of this, deep learning-based approaches using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) [13] and spectrograms of the music clips for MER is a promising alternative.

BACKGROUND Garlic-related misinformation is prevalent whenever a virus outbreak occurs. Again, with the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), garlic-related misinformation is spreading through social media sites, including Twitter. Machine learning-based approaches can be used to detect misinformation from vast tweets. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to develop machine learning algorithms for detecting misinformation on garlic and COVID-19 in Twitter. METHODS This study used 5,929 original tweets mentioning garlic and COVID-19. Tweets were manually labeled as misinformation, accurate information, and others. We tested the following algorithms: k-nearest neighbors; random forest; support vector machine (SVM) with linear, radial, and polynomial kernels; and neural network. Features for machine learning included user-based features (verified account, user type, number of followers, and follower rate) and text-based features (uniform resource locator, negation, sentiment score, Latent Dirichlet Allocation topic probability, number of retweets, and number of favorites). A model with the highest accuracy in the training dataset (70% of overall dataset) was tested using a test dataset (30% of overall dataset). Predictive performance was measured using overall accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and balanced accuracy. RESULTS SVM with the polynomial kernel model showed the highest accuracy of 0.670. The model also showed a balanced accuracy of 0.757, sensitivity of 0.819, and specificity of 0.696 for misinformation. Important features in the misinformation and accurate information classes included topic 4 (common myths), topic 13 (garlic-specific myths), number of followers, topic 11 (misinformation on social media), and follower rate. Topic 3 (cooking recipes) was the most important feature in the others class. CONCLUSIONS Our SVM model showed good performance in detecting misinformation. The results of our study will help detect misinformation related to garlic and COVID-19. It could also be applied to prevent misinformation related to dietary supplements in the event of a future outbreak of a disease other than COVID-19.

Frequent testing of the entire population would help to identify individuals with active COVID-19 and allow us to identify concealed carriers. Molecular tests, antigen tests, and antibody tests are being widely used to confirm COVID-19 in the population. Molecular tests such as the real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (rRT-PCR) test will take a minimum of 3 hours to a maximum of 4 days for the results. The authors suggest using machine learning and data mining tools to filter large populations at a preliminary level to overcome this issue. The ML tools could reduce the testing population size by 20 to 30%. In this study, they have used a subset of features from full blood profile which are drawn from patients at Israelita Albert Einstein hospital located in Brazil. They used classification models, namely KNN, logistic regression, XGBooting, naive Bayes, decision tree, random forest, support vector machine, and multilayer perceptron with k-fold cross-validation, to validate the models. Naïve bayes, KNN, and random forest stand out as the most predictive ones with 88% accuracy each.

Background and Aim: Although the prognosis of nasopharyngeal cancer largely depends on a classification based on the tumor-lymph node metastasis staging system, patients at the same stage may have different clinical outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate the survival prognosis of nasopharyngeal cancer using machine learning. Settings and Design: Original, retrospective. Materials and Methods: A total of 72 patients with a diagnosis of nasopharyngeal cancer who received radiotherapy ± chemotherapy were included in the study. The contribution of patient, tumor, and treatment characteristics to the survival prognosis was evaluated by machine learning using the following techniques: logistic regression, artificial neural network, XGBoost, support-vector clustering, random forest, and Gaussian Naive Bayes. Results: In the analysis of the data set, correlation analysis, and binary logistic regression analyses were applied. Of the 18 independent variables, 10 were found to be effective in predicting nasopharyngeal cancer-related mortality: age, weight loss, initial neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio, initial lactate dehydrogenase, initial hemoglobin, radiotherapy duration, tumor diameter, number of concurrent chemotherapy cycles, and T and N stages. Gaussian Naive Bayes was determined as the best algorithm to evaluate the prognosis of machine learning techniques (accuracy rate: 88%, area under the curve score: 0.91, confidence interval: 0.68-1, sensitivity: 75%, specificity: 100%). Conclusion: Many factors affect prognosis in cancer, and machine learning algorithms can be used to determine which factors have a greater effect on survival prognosis, which then allows further research into these factors. In the current study, Gaussian Naive Bayes was identified as the best algorithm for the evaluation of prognosis of nasopharyngeal cancer.
